You have been subscribed to a public bug: After the grub splash screen, display output fails over HDMI with a Radeon 5870. Video output over DVI is not affected, as tested by connecting an old monitor to a DVI port instead. This issue affects all display aspects after the grub splash; activating additional TTYs does not enable display output. This continues to occur after selecting an older kernel version; adding flags to grub boot menu has no impact either. This happens via an upgrade from 9.10, as well as a clean install of 10.04 from any of the distributions listed below.
The Desktop cd fails to display also, alternate cd can install through text mode, and then experiences the same problem after install. I do not believe there to be actual system breakage; sounds play after the display output fails which show the system is still responsive. I believe this should also be considered a regression, as this issue never occurred on 9.10; it has been a problem with every 10.04 build I have tested (Alpha 1, alpha 2, beta 1 and the daily build listed on 28/03/10). Apologies for not knowing exactly which package causes this, and for my lack of concision. ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete -- HDMI output fails after 10.04 installation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551003 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
